    And it has a HEADPHONE JACK! Forgot to mention that in the video. Mentioned a Pixel 5XL that doesn't exist. Shouldn't have skipped coffee today!
    Who’s buying one? For me, it’s the perfect phone to recommend to friends and family.

      I have a question,
      I am aware that Google has announced that the future Pixel phones will not have Unlimited Storage. However, Google Pixel 5 was the Last phone to have Unlimited Google storage. So my question is, If I buy a brand new google pixel 5 today, will I still get Unlimited cloud storage for all the pictures?

    I have both the pixel 5 and 5a. I'm a little nerd tech so I got the pixel 5 when it came out and I just got this bad boy today. I gotta say... It's nice having a headphone jack again. I was hoping that Google would make the another phone with a headphone jack and IP67 rating. But it did downsize just a tad.
    Here what I think are the differences...
    Pixel 5 pros: smaller, 90hz refresh rate, IP68, and 8GB of RAM.
    Pixel 5 cons: top ear speaker is underneath the screen so some calls sounds muffled, no headphone jack, smaller battery, and speakers are not loud
    Pixel 5a pros: IP67, loud speakers including the ear speaker, headphone jack, and bigger battery.
    Pixel 5a cons: a bit bigger, 60hz refresh rate (which you can't really notice the difference, only if you really pay attention to it), and 6GB of RAM.
    I wouldn't say these phones are made for gaming cuz it only has a 765G chip in it but for what it is... It is built pretty solid and runs smooth for me.

      Do you experience any eye strain or discomfort with either the 5 or 5a? I tried both and had to send them back because I found the oled screens to be inferior to my pixel 2's amoled. The 5 and 5a seems slightly blurry, with less vivid color and bad viewing angles compared to the pixel 2. Overall I just could not look at either of these phones without experiencing eye discomfort / trouble focusing on text almost immediately

    I'm still using my 3 xl. I know I'll miss the front facing stereo speakers whenever I move up to the 4 or 5etc. Do you have a 3 xl hanging around to let me know about the comparison? Everything else I'm good with except maybe the chipset. What do you think of the 7 series vs the 845 that's in my 3xl? I'm not a big camera aficionado, but the 2 XL and 3 xl had great camera stuff anyway. Basically I like a great screen, good speakers and as many updates as possible. Still not sure about the 5a or 5 in regards to the speaker on the bottom. I tried an LG v50, everyone raved about, and the speaker s didn't impress me. What's your opinion? Thanks.

      Going from a 3xl to a 5 you'll instantly notice better battery life and some slightly crisper photos but they'll take longer then they do to enhance compared to the 3 and 4 which has the visual and neural core. And when it comes to the 6 which I'm using right now this thing is amazing photo and video wise they went the apple silicon route with the tensor chip and boy is it good

I don't like buying new photos all the time as it's wasteful. But my mobile will not upgrade to the Android 12. Google say they always upgrade their latest models to the newest Android. I use my mobile for my business so I do need a mobile that is updated. The Moto G8 plus is really lagging now. So rubbish and I wouldn't got the mobile if I new Motorola wasn't going to upgrade it.

    Get a 4xl instead. It's the perfect every day phone over either of these.

      Sure, you can get the 4XL cheaper than a 5a, but I'd pay more to get not only a new phone but also updates for the next 3 years (4XL is nearing it's end) and also much better battery life. And day-to-day the 5a will be as fast as a 4XL

      @@anthonytech for around the 100-150 dollar difference you make a good point with keeping the software up to date. But there are plenty of things still that'll bring a good amount of the same satisfaction to users that the 4xl will.
      Face unlock is the best in the game, battery has improved with time, aesthetically it can be more pleasing to some, lower cost, and it being an initial flagship in it's time it has similar if not better specs than an a series of this year.
      I'm looking forward to everything Google is bringing to the table, it's seems with every release there's major improvements that keep us coming back. And let's not forget about that G cam 🤌🏼

      @@marioleal101 Yeah it has good specs by todays standards but you can only buy them used. How much wear is on the battery is unknown. It's battery life could be horrible if you get a unit where the battery was poorly taken care of. Also the 5a has an ultrawide camera which people get way more excited about over the silly telephoto the 4 XL has
